My lovely friends Connie and Stew got married in June in Orange County, California and Connie asked me to create hairpieces for her and her 6 bridesmaids. I jumped at the chance and after lots of 'Trans-Atlantic' ideas, samples sent and chatting via Facebook, we came up with a gorgeous ivory hair flower on a comb for her with Swarovski crystals and pearls on twisted wires in the centre, and a sprinkling of fluffy ivory ostrich feathers to add texture and movement. I loved it and she did too!
For the 6 bridesmaids we went for 1 inch hair comb with a spray of wired Swarovski crystals, pearls and black rhinestones to match their black dresses for a delicate but sparkly look.
I loved making all of these and even though because of my advanced pregnancy we couldn't get to Cali, it was so lovely to know that something I'd made for Connie was with her on her wedding day. It was such a pleasure to be involved in her special day and to know that a little bit of me was there with her and Stew.
Here's to a happy and healthy married life together! xx
